11 Rules

I think rule number one will be the most important in my post high-school life. "Rule 1: Life is not fair, get used to it." This applies it's-self already, nothing goes the same for everybody, you won't have a big home, make a large amount of money, and get whatever else you want just because somebody else does. If you want or need something, do it on your own. Even then there isn't any guarantee it'll work out the way you think it should.

US Gun Laws

          I believe the US does need to improve it's gun laws. We are facing many, many deaths related to guns and the rates in other countries aren't nearly as high as the ones in the US (9,000 [US], 170 [Germany], 150 [150]). These deaths all took place last year.
They could be improved by letting soldiers in the military carry guns in combat, and police officers who need more that a taser. And then make the gun license's more difficult to obtain; maybe a psychiatric evaluation test, or a stronger, stricter background test.

Canoe Home

I think Michael should be able to live where he is. He's not hurting anybody, breaking any laws, and on the water he isn't really in any ones way. If he understands the risks and wants this anyway, he should be allowed to. He has a vest, and knows what to do if he has any trouble.
